The Entertainer (demo)

from 2013 Demo by Wayfarer

/

lyrics

Soldiers shouted get down on your knees (your family name's' a disease)
I cried out but no one heard my call (they were the first against the wall)
Fleeing from my home I am broken
Journey to a land of lead and gold

Pouring the contents of soul through my fingers into these keys
Floating right over the heads of those that I would kill myself to appease
I am but a simple entertainer, I'd walk through hell just to play you a song
Every note, every phrase, every coda, reminders of ways in which my life went wrong

Where there stood a boy stands a man
I play these ivory keys with my hands

So my son
All your life
Strive to be somebody

And I know
In my heart
That you'll be

Never look back again
I'll never look back again
